SPECIFICATION
TITLE OF THE INVENTION
4-HALOGEN-N-PHENYL-3-PYRIDINE-CARBOXAMIDE COMPOUNDS
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to novel 4-halopyridine-3-
carboxamide compounds and herbicidal composition thereof.
2. Description of the Prior Arts
Certain compounds belonging to 4-halopyridine-
carboxamides have been mentioned in some literatures.
That is, 4-chloro-N-phenyl-3-pyri~inecarboxamide
hydrochloride is known as a bactericidal agent. Bala,
Marion et al.
(Chem. Abst., 88, 6686s) reported 4-chloro-N, 2-diphenyl-3-
quinolinecarboxamide, 4-chloro-N-methyl-N. 2-diphenyl-3-
quinolinecarboxamide, 4-chloro-N-(4-methylphenyl)-2-phenyl-
3-quinolinecarboxamide, 4-chloro~N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-phenyl-
3-quinolinecarboxamide and 4-chloro-N-(4-N',N'-dimethyl-
aminophenyl)-2-phenyl-3-quinolinecarboxamide which were pre-
pared by the reaction of quinoline-3-carbonylchloride compounds
with amines, and were confirmed with ultraviolet and infrared
spectrum thereof. 9-Chloro-N, 2-diphenyl-3-quinolinecarboxamide
was also obtained by a method similar to that lisclosed by Bala,
Marian et al. (Zankows~2-Jasinsca, Wanda et al, Chem. Abst.,
,X
.,

83, 58~20 g). Nag~no (Chem. Abst., 5S, 11413 g) reported the
preparation of 4-chloro-N-phenyl-3-quinolinecarboxamide, 4-
chloro-N-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-3-quinolinecarboxamide and 4-
chloro-N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-quinolinecarboxamide by
treating the corresponding 4-hydroxy compounds with
phosphorus oxychloride. United States Patent No. 4,312,870
described 4-chloro-N-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-quinolinecarboxamide
and 4-chloro-N-(4-chlorophenyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3-
quinolinecarboxamide as the raw materials for
pyrazoloquinoline compounds having attractive activity.
Certain 3-carbamoyl-pyridine derivatives are also known as
possessing herbicidal effect. However, such known compounds
have N-benzylcarbamoyl group at the 3rd position of pyridine
ring, or are N-phenyl-3-pyridinecarboxamide derivatives in
which however the 4th position of pyridine ring is hydrogen
atom and the 5th position is substituted by cyano, carboxyl
or a lower alkoxycarbonyl. Therefore, all of such compounds
are structurally different from the compounds of the formula
(I) as mentioned below.
As discussed above, there were no reports on the 4-
halo-pyridine-3-carboxamide compounds of the formula (I),
together with no suggestion on their herbicidal activities.

as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid, or
organic acids such as methanesulfonic acid, p-toluene-
sulfonic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, succinic acid, oxalic
acid or tartaric acid. Also, they may form the correspond-
ing pyridinium salts with halogen compounds such as methyl
iodide, or sulfonates such as methyl methanesulfonate. Further,
2' R3, R4, R5 or R6 in the formula (I) is
carboxyl, the carboxyl group may form the salt with a base
such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, calcium hydro-
xide, triethylamine or ethanolamine. The formation of such
salts as mentioned can be conducted in accordance with a
conventional method. It should be understood that the salts
as mentioned above are included in the invention.
Furthermore, interesting compounds in addition to the
compounds shown in the examples are as follows;

This invention is illustrated further by examples
hereinafter.
Physico-chemical data on Compounds obtained by
Examples are shown in Tables 1 and 2.
Growth-regulating activities on plants of the com-
pounds of the invention are shown in Table 3.
Furthermore, the evaluation method growth regulating
activity is as follows;
A carrier was prepared by mixing 50 parts (by weight)
of talc, 25 parts of bentonite, 2 parts of Solpole-9047*
(Toho Chemical Co., Ltd, Japan) and 3 parts of Solpole-5039*
(Toho Chemical Co., Ltd, Japan). 50 parts of a test com-
pound and 200 parts of the carrier were mixed to obtain 20%
wettable powder, followed by dispersing the powder in dis-
tilled water to make a dispersion of the definite concentra-
tions.
Seeds of Oryza sativa L., Echinochloa crus-galli L.,
and Raphanus sativus L. were germinated in a laboratory dish,
to which the dispersion was added. After breeding for 7 days
in a thermostatic box kept at 25C under illumination of

fluorescent tubes, growth of plant was observed.
In the column of "Evaluation" of Table 3, the designa-
tion 1 denotes no influence, 2 denotes 25% growth inhibition,
3 denotes 50~ growth inhibition, 4 denotes 75~ growth inhibi-
tion and 5 denotes 100% growth inhibition.
Example 1
5-Allyl-4-chloro-N-(2,6-diethyl-4-methylphenyl)-2,6-
dimethyl-3-pyridinecarboxamide (Method A)
A mixture of 0.85 g (2.41 m mol) of 5-allyl-N-
(2,6-diethyl-4-methylphenyl)-1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-4-oxo-
3-pyridinecarboxamide and 5 ml of phosphorus oxychloride
was heated under reflux for an hour. An excess of phos-
phorus oxychloxide was removed under vacuo, and the residue
was dissolved in 100 ml of methylene chloride. Then the
resulting solution was added into 150 ml of saturated sodium
bicarbonate solution, followed by stirring for an hour at
room temperature. The organic layer was washed with water,
dried and concentrated by the conventional method. The
resulted crystalline residue was recrystallized from ethyl
acetate to give 0.84 g of the title compound, m.p. 192.5 -
194C.

data are shown in Ta~les 1 and 2, and their growth-regulat-
ing activities on plants are shown in Table 3.
